1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

introductionGiant sacrococcygeal teratomas (GSCTs) involve severe deformation of the buttock region in addition to potential functional impacts. Little interest has been given to improving the aesthetic post-operative appearance in children with these tumours.

methodsWe describe a new technique for immediate reconstruction of GSCTs using buried dermal-fat flaps and a low transverse scar in the infragluteal fold.

resultsOur technique allows wide exposure for tumour resection and functional restoration of the pelvic floor while placing the scars in anatomical locations and restoring buttock aesthetics including gluteal projection and infragluteal fold definition.

conclusionReestablishment of function and form should be kept in mind at initial surgery in GSCT surgery to maximize results and enhance post-operative outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.
